  1. I wish more restaurant-folk had this attitude. Might cut down on the self-entitled behavior that seems prevalent these days.
  2. Any recent experiences? I'm thinking of making reservations for December. I've heard some mixed things lately. Should I expect Ray's the Steaks: East? (Actually a good thing in my book, as I really enjoyed RTS when I ate there last) or more of the "classics" atmosphere seen around the opening?
  3. Was this man in your party? If not, I would tell the dude to get lost and get a life. Even if he was part of my group, I would tell him to get his nose out of my food. What is wrong with some people?
  4. Have they cleaned up all the construction at that end of the street yet? That location did not seem too appealing last time I was there.
  5. I had a burger there a while ago, pretty good imho. Certainly not among the elite (Central, Palena, etc.) but it was a thick, juicy burger nonetheless.
  6. To anyone familiar with the brunch crowd: do I need reservations for me and my +1, or can I just roll up on Saturday/Sunday morning?
  7. You're probably right, but I've had severs "talk down" to me once or twice before, and it feels pretty crappy, especially when you're paying for the experience. If a sever was surly and then proceeded to push my plate around - while I was still eating - I probably would not be as well behaved as the other poster
  8. I actually really like Hot Stone. I had it for the first time about two years ago, and have made one or two return trips. The BBQ is not good, but the sliced sandwiches (turkey, roast beef, ham) are tasty. I like to get a sliced turkey sandwich, and then dip it in bbq sauce. Unlike someone upthread, I like the thin slices. My only problem is sometimes you get a charred piece of turkey.
  9. I only know two contractors, but if I explained what Matchbox is to them, they would probably tell someone else it was an Italian joint.
  10. Does anyone know if Black's has a half-priced burger happy hour? I heard such a rumor last week, haven't been able to verify.
  11. People feel so entitled these days, it kills me. If you want to order 3 courses + dessert, going out after 10 o'clock probably isn't the best idea.
  12. I do enjoy a potbelly sandwich every now and then, pretty good for $4, plus I'm a sucker for their sugar cookies [edit: this is off-topic, sorry]
  13. I thought Outback was home of the bloomin' onion. I believe Chili's is known for (ha) baby back ribs...barbecue sauce.
  14. I'm planning on making my first trip to RTC with my +1. Will we have much trouble finding a place in the bar area on a weeknight? Thanks!
  15. Went the the other day - excellent. I had a burger with provolone, cooked medium (which it was). Tasted delicious. This isn't a fancy burger (a la Palena or Central), but a real, man's burger (sorry ladies, I don't know how to better describe it). Fries were also very good. Hand-cut and crispy with a nice seasoning. My only complaint - and its trivial - was that it cost about $2 for a fountain drink but maybe thats the going rate these days, I just never seem to notice. Bottom line: very good, worth every minute that I sat in traffic on Rockville Pike
  16. Is Market Inn any good? I saw them on the Food Network a few weeks ago.
  17. I used to love the lobster mac+cheese at Zola. Then, on one trip, I had a ton of shell in my meal and I've never been back. Anyone know any restaurants in town that have good lobster mac?
  18. i thought the bread was good for a fast food place, the meat seemed kinda low quality though i had a turkey and cheese sammich
